重离子驱动的惯性聚变能是一种受控聚变能的方法，它似乎满足科学、经济和环境标准，为人类能源需求提供理想的长期解决方案。由于预计的可靠性、效率和成本优势，美国惯性聚变能源计划将重点放在重离子感应加速器上作为惯性聚变驱动器。本文描述了规模化实验，这些实验证明了感应加速器/驱动器所需的许多重要元素。其中包括： 充足的重离子源；高压离子注射器；多个强离子束的传输和加速；和带加速的束电流放大。描述了 ILSE 加速器的计划。该设施将允许研究驱动器光束在全光束尺寸和强度下的操纵，但能量远低于驱动器所需的能量。
Heavy ion driven inertial fusion energy is an approach to controlled fusion energy that appears to satisfy the scientific, economic, and environmental criteria for a desirable, long-term solution to mankind’s energy needs. Because of projected reliability, efficiency, and cost advantages the U.S. inertial fusion energy program is concentrating on the heavy ion induction accelerator as the inertial fusion driver. This paper describes scaled experiments that have demonstrated many important elements required by induction accelerator/drivers. These include: adequate heavy ion sources; high voltage ion injectors; transport and acceleration of multiple intense ion beams; and beam current amplification with acceleration. Plans for the ILSE accelerator are described. This facility would permit the study of driver beam manipulations at full beam size and intensity but at energies much less than required by a driver.
